Overview
Travel from the highlands of Guatemala to coastal El Salvador on a trip all things Central America. Start your adventure with a burst of Guatemalan Maya culture, visiting handicraft markets, shamanic Maya ceremonies and the impressive volcano-lined Lake Atitlan. Then, tuk-tuk through Antigua with the promise of a freshly made tortilla for lunch. Cross the border into Honduras for the UNESCO-listed Copan ruins before a guided tour of a coffee plantation on El Salvador’s Ruta de las Flores (Flower Route). Reach the lively Salvadoran capital and its eye-catching El Rosario rainbow church before wrapping up the adventure on the sunny Pacific coast.
